I suppose I should always reflect on King's accomplishments the way I did this year--but I don't. Of course, I am familiar with the 'dream' speech--but because of this particular election, I paid much more notice to King's words this year--and felt the power of them much more so this year. <BR/><BR/>You are right--King would not sit around, with a complacent smile on his face--he would take this time of high energy in our country and take his cause to new levels. Because yes, even though we have come a long ways--there is still so far to go (yet).<BR/><BR/>A nice piece, Dr. Jay--I liked it a lot. <BR/><BR/>MelindaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2515247027173641993.post-6754502166287101182009-01-20T17:51:00.000-05:002009-01-20T17:51:00.000-05:00I agree completely.I agree completely.Lana Gramlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06975996208260144558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2515247027173641993.post-49861917307415883002009-01-20T09:26:00.000-05:002009-01-20T09:26:00.000-05:00What a beautiful quote.

It looks like I'll be there for a few more days...She has a lot of stuff crammed in there, which all has to be moved out of the way.<BR/><BR/>Yes, I think that King would be proud of our new president. But we still have a long way to go to reach the Promised Land.
